Kim Hite • Harry Lodwick WEATHER THURSDAY, MAY 2, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com Section of Ohio 124 to close Road slip to blame BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM ANTIQUITY — A section of Ohio 124 will be closed for 45 days beginning Monday, June 6 though some residents have been confused as to how much of the crucial route will be off limits. A sign erected near the Ohio 833 and Ohio 124 intersection at the Pomeroy corporation limit simply states: “SR 124 will be closed June 6 for 45 days.” This broad road statement has prompted numerous calls to local officials to clarify just where and how much of Ohio 124 will close. The actual slip work will take place near Antiquity in Letart Township between Blind Hollow Road and McNickle Road - only those living near this area or using this as a normal route will have to find another way to their destination. Brenna Slavens, spokesperson with the Ohio Department of Transportation, said the area where contractors are working is only around 300 to 400 feet. However, motorists should avoid the surrounding area and find alternate travel routes for the duration of the project. The road slip in this area of Ohio 124 has been an ongoing problem which has been compounded by recent, heavy rains. Slavens said the Alan Stone Company of Cutler is handling construction for the project estimated to cost $95,525.70 and be completed by Aug. 21. Repairing the slip will involve drilling shafts into bedrock and filling those series of shafts with concrete to stabilize the road. This sign near the intersection of Ohio 833 and Ohio 124 in Pomeroy has many people confused about just how much of Ohio 124 will be closed for 45 days. ODOT states the entire route will not be closed for a slip repair project taking place near Antiquity. (Beth Sergent/photo) Splish splash!

REED BREED@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM SYRACUSE — Sunny days and temperatures in the mid-90’s have translated into a booming business for the London Pool - Meigs County’s only municipal swimming pool. Wendy Egan, pool manager, said business has been busy at the pool since its opening day last Saturday. Yesterday, swimmers of all ages were taking a dip in the main pool and baby pool to keep cool while daredevils were trying out the high dive. Pool hours for this season are: noon - 7 p.m., Monday-Thursday; 11 a.m. - 6 p.m., Friday-Saturday; 1 p.m. - 7 p.m., Sunday. Night swims are 8:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m., Monday-Tuesday. Kids Day is from noon - 2 p.m., Fridays which includes games and activities. Daily admission rates are as follows: children (ages 4-18) $3; adults, $4; seniors, $3; non-swimmers, $1; children under four years of age get in free. Night swim rates (also called “Swimming Under the Stars”), $2 for swimmers; $1 for non-swimmer. Rates for multi-visit passes (also known as punch cards) are as follows: $27 for 10 visits; $115 for 50 visits; $200 for 100 visits. The popular punch cards can be shared with anyone and each visit equals one punch - this means a swimmer can use a 10-visit card to bring 10 different people in at once or bring one person in 10 times, etc. Punch cards are only valid for the year in which they are purchased - no 2010 cards may be used for 2011 admission. Swimming lessons are also being offered July 11-22 with Greg McCall, an American Red Cross instructor. McCall will give lessons at the pool for children age five and older. Classes will meet on weekday mornings for two weeks. Exact times will be announced later and the cost is $40 per student. Call London Pool at 992-5418 to sign up or for more information. The London Pool will close for the season Aug. 6. County receives $100K for slip repairs Health Department. A $10,000 grant to the village through the Creating Healthy Families program was awarded through the county health department, according to Andy Brumfield, health educator. Brumfield said the money will be used for the first leg of Middleport’s new trail, which will travel from the Bridge of Honor in Pomeroy to the lower end of Middleport. Work has begun on this phase of the project, according to Mayor Michael Gerlach. The remainder of the walking path project remains in the design phase, and that is expected to take the remainder of this year. Full funding for the new path has not yet been secured, but Gerlach said the village See Health, A5 POMEROY — Meigs County has received over $100,000 in state funding to repair county roads damaged by slips. Engineer Eugene Triplett said the Ohio Public Works Commission approved the funding after he and county commissioners certified damage estimates for seven county roads. The total estimate to repair these roads is $128,433. Triplett said OPWC will provide 80 percent funding for the repairs, and the county will be responsible for the balance. Peach Fork Road, Sumner Road, Burlingham Road, Eden Ridge Road, Carr Road and Elk Run Road are in need of drainage infrastructure, guardrail, backfill material, and culvert replacement after weeks of steady rains caused them to slip — dramatically in some places. Traffic on those roads was closed or restricted due to the damage caused by the slips, but Triplett said temporary repairs were completed and the roads reopened, although now traffic is restricted while repairs get underway. He said Sumner Road is now closed for the repair of the slip there, and work has been completed on others. Gov. John Kasich said he has asked for a federal assessment of dmages caused by the rains of April and May through the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Meigs, Athens, Gallia and 14 other counties in southeastern Ohio. The county could be eligible for 100percent reimbursement of repairs if an award is approved through FEMA. Record-setting rainfall caused road damage in all of those counties, and Triplett said although Meigs roadways sustained significant damage, the damage here was less than was reported in others, including Jackson and Pike. The state has committed $750,000 in assistance for residents of Gallia, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton counties whose personal property was damaged by May 10 and May 11 flash flooding. There were no reports of serious private property damage in Meigs County as a result of the spring rains. �Thursday, May 2, 2011 The Daily Sentinel • Page A2 www.mydailysentinel.com Meigs County Forecast Bikers gather Thursday: Sunny, with a high near 85.

In a letter sent Wednesday to CBS News Chairman and “60 Minutes” executive producer Jeff Fager, lawyer Elliot Peters said the May 22 segment about Armstrong was built on a series of falsehoods, and he accused the reputable CBS show of sloppy journalism. “In the cold light of morning your story was either extraordinarily shoddy, to the point of being reckless and unprofessional, or a vicious hitand-run job,” Peters wrote. “In either case, a categorical on-air apology is required.” CBS News spokesman Kevin Tedesco said Wednesday he couldn’t immediately comment on the letter, but added: “We consider this the most thorough investigation into doping in the sport of cycling ever done.” Former teammate Tyler Hamilton alleged in the piece that Armstrong talked about using the banned blood-booster EPO to prepare for his third Tour de France in 2001 and cycling’s governing body, the International Cycling Union, helped him hide a positive test at the Swiss event. Last week, the head of Switzerland’s anti-doping laboratory, Martial Saugy, denied allegations Armstrong tested positive for performing-enhancing drugs during the 2001 Tour de Suisse. Saugy said his lab did find suspicious levels of EPO in four urine samples from the race Armstrong won, but he didn’t know if any belonged to the seventime Tour de France winner. Armstrong repeatedly has denied doping and has never tested positive. Federal prosecutors in Los Angeles are investigating an alleged doping program in Armstrong’s teams. “60 Minutes” also reported that the UCI officials brokered a meeting involving Armstrong and Saugy’s World AntiDoping Agency-accredit- ed lab, which tested the Swiss race samples. Saugy told the Swiss daily Neue Zurcher Zeitung last week that he met with Armstrong and then-U.S. Postal team manager Johan Bruyneel, but not in Lausanne as Hamilton claimed and unconnected to a suspicious test result. Peters added the show’s producers were alerted by Armstrong’s camp prior to the show’s airing that the Swissrelated allegations were false and provided evidence they say refuted them. “What is particularly disturbing is that ‘60 Minutes’ had access to the true facts, could easily have verified them, and apparently chose instead to broadcast untruths and then layer innuendo on top of the falsehoods,” Peters said. Armstrong has taken several steps to address the allegations made in the “60 Minutes” segment, posting a retort on Twitter, creating a web site — facts4lance.com — and now urging CBS for an apology. Last week, he also announced he was adding Peters and another high-profile attorney, John Keker, to his legal team. State of Alaska poised to release Palin emails BY BECKY BOHRER ASSOCIATED PRESS JUNEAU, Alaska — The state of Alaska is poised to release 24,199 pages of emails sent and received by Sarah Palin while she was governor. Another 2,275 pages are being withheld for reasons including attorney-client, work product or executive privilege; 140 pages were deemed to be “nonrecords,” or unrelated to state business. The emails cover the first 21 months of Palin’s tenure, ending in September 2008. That’s when news organizations and citizens first requested her emails, after Palin’s selection to be John McCain’s vice presidential running mate. Subsequent requests were made for the remainder of Palin’s emails. The volume of those records and timing of their release isn’t clear; Linda Perez, the administrative director for Gov. Sean Parnell, said she’s waiting for the The Daily Sentinel Reader Services (USPS 213-960) Correction Policy Ohio Valley Publishing Co. Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

BY DAVID RISING & MARIA CHENG ASSOCIATED PRESS BERLIN — The number of people hit by a massive European outbreak of foodborne bacterial infections is one third higher than previously known and a stunningly high number of patients suffer from a potentially deadly complication than can shut down their kidneys, officials said Wednesday. The death toll rose to 17, with German authorities reporting that an 84-yearold woman with the complication had died on Sunday. Medical authorities appeared no closer to discovering either the source of the infection or the mystery at the heart of the outbreak: why the unusual strain of the E. coli bacteria appears to be causing so many cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome, which attacks the kidneys and can cause seizures, strokes and comas. “This particular strain we’re dealing with now seems to be unique,” said Dr. Hilde Kruse, program manager for food safety at WHO Europe: Germany’s national health agency said 1,534 people in the country had been infected by EHEC, a particularly deadly strain of the common bacteria found in the digestive systems of cows, humans and other mammals. The Robert Koch Institute had reported 1,169 a day earlier. The outbreak has hit at least nine European countries but virtually all of the sick people either live in Germany or recently traveled there. The Robert Koch Institute said 470 people in Germany were suffering from hemolytic uremic syndrome, or HUS, a number that independent experts called unprecedented in modern medical history. HUS normally occurs in 10 percent of EHEC infections, Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution meaning the number seen in Germany could be expected in an outbreak three times the size being currently reported. That discrepancy could indicate that a vast number of cases haven’t been reported because their symptoms are relatively mild, medical experts said. But they also offered another, more disturbing theory — the strain of EHEC causing the outbreak in Europe could be more dangerous than any previously seen. “There may well be a great number of asymptomatic cases out there that we’re missing. This could be a much bigger outbreak than we realize right now,” said Paul Hunter, a professor of health protection at the University of East Anglia in England. “There might also be something genetically different about this particular strain of E. coli that makes it more virulent.” There are hundreds of different E. coli strains in the environment — every person naturally carries the bacteria — but only a very small percentage are dangerous. German Agriculture Minister Ilse Aigner said scientists were working nonstop to find the source of the germ that is believed to have been spread in Europe on tainted vegetables — and where in the long journey from farm to grocery store the contamination occurred. “Hundreds of tests have been done and the responsible agencies ... have determined that most of the patients who have been sickened ate cucumbers, tomatoes and leaf lettuce and primarily in northern Germany,” Aigner said on ARD television. “The states that have conducted the tests must now follow back the delivery path to see how the cucumbers, or tomatoes or lettuce got here.” German authorities ini- tially pointed to cucumbers from Spain after people in Hamburg fell ill after eating fresh produce. After tests of some 250 samples of vegetables from around the city, only the three cucumbers from Spain and one other of unknown origin tested positive for E. coli. But further tests showed that those vegetables, while contaminated, did not cause the outbreak. Officials are still warning all Germans to avoid eating raw cucumbers, tomatoes or lettuce. Some experts said it might be impossible to ever identify what caused the outbreak, as much of the tainted fresh produce may already have disappeared from markets. “As in many foodborne disease outbreaks, the culprit may never be identified and the epidemic just fades away,” said Brendan Wren, professor of pathogen molecular biology at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. To identify which E. coli strain is responsible, scientists must grow the suspect bacteria in a laboratory, which can take up to two days. Once that’s done, tests to characterize the strain may take another day or two and those tests can only be done in specialized labs. “These are complicated molecular tests and it’s not something you can do in one day,” Hunter said. In the Czech city of Brno, lab workers wearing white coats and latex gloves meticulously snipped hundreds of pieces off of cucumbers, peppers and other vegetables from Spain, Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark as well as eastern and central Europe to be tested before allowing them into the Czech market for sale.

OU LGBT Center works to help students ATHENS — While centers for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community support people who identify as LGBT, such centers have the potential to serve countless others. Nationally recognized for its commitment and dedication to embracing diversity, Ohio University is home to the only resource for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community in the Southeast Ohio area. Mickey Hart, director of the LGBT Center, understands the impact that reaching and educating both LGBT and non-LGBT people can have on a person or community. "People need to hear the words 'lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender' and they have to think about what those words mean. The more [non-LGBT people] know about us, the more open and welcoming they become, both now and in their future work environment," said Hart. Hart's mission as director is to be a support system for the LGBT community, but also to educate nonLGBT people. Hart considers this a vital part of his job because if people are not ready to encounter all of the world's diversity, then the center is doing them a disservice. "We can potentially serve every single student, faculty, staff, community member and alumni member of OU, not just a small population of LGBT students. We need to create an environment where we can talk about these issues," said Hart. "There is so much to know about people who are different than us, from different cultures and ways of life. But people get comfortable wherever they are and don't want to learn. What I know is that [people] by and large would benefit from opening up, not just to LGBT people, but in their scope of the world as a whole." Contact Hart to find out: • How the general public can benefit from learning about the LGBT population. • What the non-LGBT community can do to embrace diversity. • What programs and services the center offers for students. • Why Ohio University was recognized as one of the top 100 LGBT friendly campuses in the country.

Over the past two years, Filson has split her time between her family's small business and the completion of the Master of Public Administration (MPA) program at Ohio University. “I am thrilled to have been chosen for this exciting and challenging role,” said Filson. “I have lived and worked in southern Ohio my whole life and have enjoyed positions that have allowed me to represent and advocate for the people of this region. I look forward to working with Heartland's editorial staff to deliver relevant local, regional, national and world news to our readership in a timely, accurate and responsible way.” In her new role, Filson will lead the staff writers for the Point Pleasant Register (www.mydaily register.com), the Pomeroy Sentinel (www.mydailysentinel.com), and the Gallipolis Tribune (www.mydailytribune.com). “I am excited to have Stephanie join our team,” added Heartland Publisher Sammy Lopez. “She will help us build better newspapers and web sites to serve our readers in the Ohio Valley.” Filson resides in the Coolville area with her husband, Chris, and 10-year-old son, Sawyer.

O’Neal sent a tweet shortly before 2:45 p.m. saying, “im retiring.” It included a link to a 16second video in which he says, “We did it; 19 years, baby. Thank you very much. That’s why I’m telling you first: I’m about to retire. Love you. Talk to you soon.” An inveterate prankster who gave himself a new nickname — or several — in each of his six NBA cities, the 15-time All-Star did not notify his latest team of his plans. He played just 37 games this year, the first of a two-year deal at the veteran’s minimum salary, making just three brief appearances after Feb. 1. “To my knowledge, he has not informed any of us that he’s retiring,” Celtics spokesman Jeff Twiss said. If he goes, O’Neal retires fifth all-time with 28,596 points, 12th with 13,099 rebounds and second only to Artis Gilmore among players with more than 2,000 baskets with a .582 field goal percentage. O’Neal’s contributions to basketball went far beyond his presence on the court. One of the most charismatic players in NBA history, O’Neal was a franchise-saver when the Orlando Magic made him the No. 1 overall pick in the 1992 draft. He took them from the lottery to the playoffs in two years, and then led them to the NBA finals in his third year before they were swept by the Houston Rockets. O’Neal, 39, signed with the Los Angeles Lakers in 1996 and had his greatest success there, winning three titles alongside Kobe Bryant and coach Phil Jackson. But amid tension between O’Neal and Bryant over credit for the team’s success, O’Neal was traded to the Miami Heat in the summer of 2004, fresh off a loss to the Detroit Pistons in the finals. After 3? years in Miami, a tenure that included his fourth NBA championship, O’Neal became a veteran-forhire, moving to Phoenix and then Cleveland and finally Boston. But he couldn’t deliver another title for Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire with the Suns, with LeBron James with the Cavaliers or with the Celtics’ Big Three of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. At each stop, he endeared himself to the fans and his new teammates with his effervescent smile and playful attitude, including the habit of adopting a new nickname that he felt embodied his role with his new team. In Phoenix he was the “Big Shaqtus”; in Boston, the “Big Shamroq.” He also embraced social networking, amassing almost 4 million followers on his Twitter account, where fans could find out his next move or even the “random acts of Shaqness” — like sitting in Harvard Square, pretending to be a statue, or going out in drag on Halloween. But O’Neal’s off-court persona couldn’t disguise the fact that he was getting old, and while he showed he could still play with younger opponents he couldn’t manage to stay on the court with them. He missed a week in November with a bruised right knee, a week in December with a calf injury and another in January with a sore right hip. He returned for three games — a total of about 34 minutes — before missing the next 27 games with what the team called a sore right leg. Although the injury was originally expected to keep him out just a few games, his absence stretched to more than two months. He returned to play in one more regular-season game but lasted just 5 minutes, 29 seconds before reinjuring the leg and limping off the court. He missed Boston’s entire firstround series against the New York Knicks and made two appearances against Miami, a total of 12 minutes, and scored two points. In all, O’Neal averaged just 9.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 20.3 minutes this season while playing in 37 games — all career lows. in Riverside Senior Men’s Golf League MASON, W.Va. — Bob Oliver, a retired coach and school teacher, has retained his eight point lead in the 2011 senior golf league at Riverside through eight weeks of play. Oliver’s total of 85.5 points leads second place Claude Proffitt with his 77.5 total. In third place is Phil Hill with 67.0 points for the season. A total of 79 players were on hand for Tuesday’s play making up 19 teams of four and one team of three players. The low score of 56 (14 under par) was shot by the team of Ken Whited, Jim Gordon, Jerry Dean and Ed Debalski. In second place with a score of 57 (13 under par) was the team of Don Corbin, Gary Clark, Gene Thomas and Bill Pethtel. The third place team with a score of 59 (11 under par) was Tom Dotson, Paul Somerville, Robert Brooks and Phil Burton. The closest to the pin winners were Ray Oliver on the ninth hole and Bill Pethtel on the 14th hole. 2011 SENIOR LEAGUE STANDINGS Bob Oliver Claude Proffitt Phil Hill Ed Debalski Cuzz Laudermilt Jim Gordon Mick Winebrenner Paul Somerville Aaron Groves Rick Northup Bill Yoho Don Corbin Gerald Kelly Steve Safford Gary Minton Earl Johnson Kenny Greene Gene Thomas Jerry Dean Skip Johnson Jerry Arnold Cliff Rice Dick Dugan Richard Mabe Charlie Hargraves Ed Coon Bob Humphreys Pat Williamson Jim Lawrence Frank Brown Ralph Sayre Bill Arnott Cecil Minton Butch Bookman Jack Fox Ken Whited 85.5 77.5 67.0 63.0 60.0 59.0 57.0 54.5 54.5 52.0 50.0 50.0 49.0 48.5 48.5 47.0 47.0 46.5 46.5 45.5 45.5 44.5 44.5 44.0 43.5 43.0 43.0 42.0 42.0 40.5 40.5 37.5 37.5 37.0 35.0 35.0 www.mydailysentinel.com Tribune - Sentinel - Register C L A S S I F I E D MARKETPLACE Houses For Sale Racine U.M Church Spring Fling yard sale w/concession stand, Sat.

It ended with an embrace from LeBron James. Nearby, Chris Bosh held up three fingers. No explanation necessary. The Miami Heat are three wins from the reason why the Big Three came together in the first place. James scored 24 points for his first win in five NBA finals games, Wade scored 15 of his 22 points in the second half and the Heat beat the Dallas Mavericks 92-84 in Game 1 of the title series on Tuesday night — holding the Western Conference champions to their lowest point total of the playoffs after a dominant defensive showing down the stretch. “Feels good because it’s the first game and we played well as a team,” James said. “We’ve got a lot of work to do. ... That’s one in the books. We’re excited about this game. Tomorrow we prepare for Game 2, and I see ways we can get better.” Dirk Nowitzki scored 27 points — tearing a tendon in the middle finger on his left, nonshooting, hand during the game and revealing afterward that he’ll likely wear a splint throughout the remainder of the series — and grabbed eight rebounds for Dallas, which got 16 points and 10 rebounds from Shawn Marion and 12 points from Jason Terry, most of those coming in an early flurry. It was Dallas’ fifth straight loss to Miami in finals games, dating to the Heat rally for the 2006 crown. Dallas held the Heat to 39 percent shooting, Miami’s second-worst showing of the playoffs. Problem was, the Mavericks shot 37 percent — by far, their worst night of the postseason offensively. “You hold a team to 38 percent shooting and 92 points, for us, that’s usually a victory,” Marion said. Sure enough, Dallas had been 7-2 when holding teams to those kind of numbers this season. Game 2 is Thursday in Miami. “We’re a veteran team,” said Nowitzki, who had a postgame Xray on the finger that was injured when he was stripping the ball from Bosh. “You can’t get down with a loss. You’ve got to come back strong on Thursday. I’ve said it a couple times in this playoff run, if you’re the road team, you’re happy with a split. So we’ve got another opportunity on Thursday to get one. Obviously, we don’t want to go home down 02.” Wade’s 3-pointer with 3:06 left put the Heat up 82-73, then the largest lead of the game for either team. The Mavs shaved two points off it on the next possession when Nowitzki hit two free throws, but James gave the Heat their first double-digit lead of the finals a few seconds later. He dribbled upcourt against Marion, crossed his dribble over and got clear for a dunk while being fouled. The free throw made it 85-75, and most in the sellout, white-clad crowd began standing in anticipation. Even then, it wasn’t over. Nowitzki made two more free throws — he was 12 for 12 from the line for the game — with 1:36 left, cutting the Miami lead to six. A momentary blip. “They have two very good closers,” Nowitzki said, “two of the best in the game.” Wade grabbed a key Michael Laughlin/Sun Sentinel/MCT Miami Heat's Udonis Haslem goes up for a basket against Dallas Mavericks Tyson Chandler, left, and Dirk Nowitzki in the fourth quarter during Game 1 of the NBA Finals, Tuesday, at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami, Florida. defensive rebound, dribbled away from three Dallas pursuers and found Bosh for a dunk with 1:08 left that restored the 10-point lead. Another dunk by James came with 38.6 seconds left, sealing the outcome. “For me, going into the fourth quarter, it’s winning time,” James said. Sure was, and the Heat fans knew it, breaking into their now-traditional tossing of their white seat covers. “By and large, we’ve got to play better, just overall,” said Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, especially noting Miami’s 16-6 edge in offensive rebounds. Miami outrebounded Dallas 46-36, got a gritty effort on both ends from reserve Mike Miller — who left with his left arm in a sling, but insisted he would be fine — and reaped rewards again from another strong fourth-quarter finish by Wade and James. “That’s who they’ve been their entire careers,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. Bosh scored 19 points and Mario Chalmers added 12 for the Heat. The Heat trailed by eight points early in the third quarter before pulling away, remaining unbeaten — now 9-0 — at home in these playoffs and snapping Dallas’ five-game road postseason winning streak. Dallas had 51 points after 26 minutes. The Mavericks scored 18 points in the next 18 minutes, 33 over the remainder of the game, as Miami’s defense found another gear. “That’s kind of the way we’ve been winning games, of late,” Wade said. “You’ve got stay with it. You can’t get frustrated because the ball’s not going in. There’s other ways you can dominate the game and we was able to do that tonight. I thought we did a great job in the second half of rebounding the ball, limiting them to one shot as much as possible.” Take away the 2006 NBA finals, and Dallas came into Game 1 having beaten Miami 14 straight times. The only team that has lost to any team more times consecutively is Minnesota, which finished with the NBA’s worst record this season. The Timberwolves have lost 16 straight to San Antonio and Portland, and 15 straight to the Los Angeles Lakers. In the finals, it simply doesn’t seem to matter. “We’ll play better. I’m very certain of that,” Carlisle said. “We had some opportunities. Shots we normally make, they didn’t go down. Look, it’s a long series. We’ll adjust.” Wade — the hero of that 2006 championship — found himself with a couple extra minutes before tipoff because of an unusually long delay after the starters were introduced. So he went looking for inspiration. He screamed at his teammates, “Don’t say, ‘I wish I woulda,’” in the huddle before they took the court, his way of telling them not to leave anything in the proverbial tank during this series. And then he slowly trotted to the other end of the court, pointed to his mother Jolinda in a baseline seat and gave her a hug as many in the crowd roared. He usually blows her a pregame kiss. On Tuesday, that wouldn’t suffice. “We both said, ‘Here we go. We’re here again. We’re back,’” Wade said. Both teams expect to ride defense in this series, and that was made perfectly evident in the opening 12 minutes. The teams combined to take 35 shots in the first quarter — and made 10. Dallas led 17-16 after the first quarter, which was the lowest two-team output in the first quarter of Game 1 of a finals in the shot clock era, according to STATS LLC. It tied the fourthlowest total for any finals quarter since 1955, bettering only the 30 points by the Magic and Lakers in Game 2 in 2009, and the 31 posted by the Jazz and Bulls in 1998’s Game 3 along with the Lakers and Celtics in 1969’s Game 4. Everyone was struggling, maybe a little because of nerves, and mostly to do with the defensive intensity on both ends. James was 3 for 6 in the first quarter, while the rest of the Heat were 3 for 15. Half of Dallas’ four first-quarter baskets were 3-pointers by Jason Kidd, the team’s 38-year-old point guard searching for his first NBA title. And the Mavericks had one — that’s right, one — 2-point basket in the game’s first 15:49, with 10 of their first 18 field goal attempts coming from 3-point range. “We really didn’t play well at all tonight,” Terry said. “First quarter, 17 points and third quarter, 17 — that’s not our style of basketball. Give them credit. They disrupted our tempo and they finished at the end.” Dallas opened the third quarter by scoring seven quick points, all on jumpers, the burst ending with DeShawn Stevenson’s 3-pointer with 10:03 remaining in the period — pushing the Mavericks’ lead to 51-43 and silencing a building that was still refilling after halftime. “He had three days to shoot that and we didn’t get anybody near him,” Spoelstra said. That was quickly fixed, and the rest of the third was largely all Miami. “For the most part, we think we had chances to get a hold of this game,” Marion said. “And we let it get out of our hands.” The Heat outscored Dallas 22-10 in the remainder of the quarter. Wade started the rally — just as he did in a seriessaving effort for Miami in Game 3 of the ‘06 finals, giving the memorable “Nah, I ain’t going out like this” quote afterward — with two layups. And James beat the clock at the end of the period with an off-balance 3-pointer from near the Dallas bench for a 65-61 Miami lead. “It’s one game, and that’s it,” Spoelstra said. “We’re already moving on.” NOTES: In his annual state-of-the-league address before Game 1 of the finals, NBA Commissioner David Stern was asked about a number of topics, including again about how James, Wade and Bosh all ended up in Miami last summer. “I don’t consider it colluding,” Stern said. ... James picked up two fouls in the first quarter, the fourth time that’s happened in the playoffs. It happened four times in the entire regular season. ... In a scene reminiscent of the 2006 NBA finals, the first time Wade went to the foul line Tuesday night, Mavs owner Mark Cuban stood to argue that he traveled. ... Juwan Howard was guarding Kidd after a switch on a screen in the first half, odd only because both were topfive picks in the 1994 NBA draft. DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Jack Nicklaus played his last round in a major alongside a 27-year-old from England with a quiet demeanor and efficient game. He had no idea that Friday afternoon at St. Andrews that Luke Donald one day would be No. 1 in the world. Is he surprised six years later to see Donald atop the world ranking? Not from what Nicklaus has seen in recent months. Nicklaus, as he does with most tour players who move to Palm Beach County, offered Donald a membership at The Bear’s Club, which has one of the most complete practice facilities around. Donald has been putting it to good use. “Luke’s game has come a long way,” Nicklaus said. “But I will have to tell you that Luke is a member at The Bear’s Club down in Florida, and he’s there all the time. There isn’t anybody who spends more time working on his golf game than I’ve seen in Luke Donald. And he spends his time chipping and putting, chipping and putting. I mean, he wears out the practice greens. “And I think that the effort he has put into it has been rewarded.” The rewards are more than even Donald once imagined. By winning the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth in a playoff over Lee Westwood, he became only the 15th player to be No. 1 in the 25 years of the world ranking. It was his second win in three months against a world-class field, to go with a playoff loss at Hilton Head and another runner-up finish in the World Match Play Championship in Spain. Donald hasn’t finished out of the top 10 — a streak of nine tournaments — since he missed the cut at Riviera in his return from a three-month winter break. Donald makes his debut as the new No. 1 on Thursday, when he tees off at the Memorial with the last two Masters champions, Charl Schwartzel and Phil Mickelson. The field also includes Rory McIlroy, Steve Stricker, Dustin Johnson, Nick Watney and Players champion K.J. Choi. Missing is Tiger Woods, who is recovering from left leg injuries. Donald is not a physically imposing figure — not along the lines of Woods, Vijay Singh or Martin Kaymer — yet there is no disputing the results he has put together over the last two years. He only has three wins, but he has finished in the top 10 in just over 50 percent of his tournaments. Most importantly, he feels like he’s No. 1. “I do,” Donald said. “I think the way that the world rankings are, consistency is highly weighted. If you can keep playing well week in and week out, keep earning those points, then you’re going to climb in the world rankings. And I don’t think there’s anybody who has been more consistent in the last nine months than me.” There’s another factor that Donald willingly points out: Woods’ downfall has given the rest of golf a fighting chance. That’s one rea- son Donald never spent much time dreaming about being No. 1 in the world. With Woods around, it didn’t seem mathematically possible. “As a kid you dream about winning majors and winning tournaments,” he said. “But for me, I always kept an eye out on the world rankings and had an interest in it. But I supposed for the bulk of my career, Tiger was so far ahead that it never really crept into my mind. “But in the last year or so, there’s been more of an upheaval in the rankings, and there’s been a lot more movement. So I knew the opportunity was there.” With Woods out of the way — he slipped to No. 13 this week — Donald, Westwood and Kaymer have been No. 1 over the last three weeks. That’s the highest turnover in the ranking since 1997, when Woods, Ernie Els and Greg Norman took turns over three weeks. Woods eventually established himself as the undisputed No. 1 in the ranking. This could take longer to sort out, although Donald is in the right place. He reached the top in style, winning the European Tour’s flagship event despite not having his best game on the weekend, and beating the former No. 1 in a sudden-death playoff. “I would have loved to have won by 10 and not had to go through all that stress,” Donald said. “I didn’t have my best golf last week. I think that’s what was more satisfying to me than anything else, that even without really feeling totally in control of my game, I was able to get it done. And obviously, to do it in that circumstance, going head to head with Lee and to have everything on the line, made it that much more special.” The last time No. 1 changed hands with the top two players going head to head was at the 2004 Deutsche Bank Championship, although Vijay Singh easily defeated Woods in regulation without having to go to a playoff. The biggest change for Donald was a short game and the shortest space in golf — between the ears. Along with working on his fitness following a wrist injury in 2008, he hired performance coach Dave Alred, best known in rugby circles as a kicking coach for the likes of Jonny Wilkinson. Kaymer, after losing to Donald in the final of the Accenture Match Play Championship, said Donald’s short game was better than Mickelson’s. Along with trying to keep it in the fairway to compensate for his lack of power off the tee, Donald has worked endlessly with longtime coach Pat Goss on chipping and putting. Nicklaus, the tournament host at Memorial, can attest to that from what he sees at The Bear’s Club. “I’ve worked very hard down there,” Donald said. “They have such great facilities that I feel guilty if I don’t work hard.” Does he ever see Nicklaus hitting balls? “Not very often, no,” Donald said with a smile. “I think he spends a lot of time on the tennis courts.” �Thursday, June 2, 2011 LOCAL SCHEDULE POMEROY — A schedule of upcoming college and high school varsity sporting events involving teams from Gallia, Mason and Meigs counties. www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A10 Lady Knights land five on All-Cardinal Conference teams Friday, June 3 Prep Track and Field 2011 OHSAA State Meet DIVISION II 9 a.m. — Boys Long Jump (Tyler Campbell/GAHS) 1:30 p.m. — Girls 4x800m Relay (Peyton Adkins, Samantha Barnes, Mckenna Warner, Abby Wiseman/GAHS) 2:55 p.m. — Boys 4x100m Relay (Tyler Campbell, Frank Goff, Ethan Moore, Austin Wilson/GAHS) 3 p.m. — Girls 400m Dash (Hannah Watts/GAHS) 3:20 p.m. — Girls 300m Hurdles (Jessica Hager/RVHS) 3:40 p.m. — Girls 200m Dash (Jessica Hager/RVHS) 4:10 p.m. — Boys 4x400m Relay (Jonathan Caldwell, Joe Jenkins, Ethan Moore, Austin Wilson/GAHS) DIVISION III 11:10 a.m. — Boys 400m Dash (Kyle Connery/EHS) 3 p.m. — Boys Discus (Tyler Cline/EHS) Saturday, June 4 Prep Track and Field 2011 OHSAA STATE MEET DIVISION III 10:37 a.m. — Boys 400m Dash* 10:55 a.m. — Girls 800m Run (Emeri Connery/EHS) 11:10 a.m. — Boys 3200m Run (Kody Wolfe/SHS) DIVISION II 1:35 p.m. — Girls 1600m Run (Peyton Adkins, Mckenna Warner/GAHS) 1:43 p.m. — Boys 1600m Run (Matt Watts/GAHS) 1:57 p.m. — Boys 4x100m Relay* 2:05 p.m. — Girls 400m Dash* 2:10 p.m. — Girls 300m Hurdles* 2:35 p.m. — Girls 200m Dash* 2:40 p.m. — Girls 3200m Run (Katie Blodgett/RVHS) 3:16 p.m. — Boys 4x400m Relay* Cottrill Riffle SENTINEL STAFF MDSSPORTS@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM SISSONVILLE, W.Va. — The Point Pleasant Lady Knights earned five All-Cardinal Conference Softball team selections for the 2011 season.
